Palatka News, 1t ts surprising, when
we think o. me many roots and herbs
possessing mrlest giytues in Florida,
that more OF Jaeh are not soug,f out by
chemists and scientists, and nv txperi-
ment their properties made known 70 the
medical profession. Some OF them are
used as household remedies by the ma
tives, ana yet they cannot be found IN our
matera medica. There are millions Of
dollars in our roots and herbs, il only
practical aud scientific men would 20 to
work and discover their peculiar proper
ties and give them to the medical world
A case in point Is the use OF the roots of
the red bay, which is one OF the stan
dard ''old woman" remedies for allaying
violent infiammatons, and for that pur-
pose will probably surpsss anything
known TO the physician. 1t is SAID that
when decoctiJn is made by boiling the
roots and mi2dng meal with it and ap-
piled, II never fails to rapidly suhdue the
most violent Inflammation. The decoc-
ton is made by taking the tender roots,
washing them clean and boiling the same
IA
taken out; then make a poultice by mix
n@ ~ meal, when it is ready to apply to
the jnnamed part. This information is
worth preserving.

Real Gatate Agenru.

The County Seat of Orange County, has no
complaint to make against the mum Der of peo-
pie who are going to California. The Regis
tiers OF the thirteen hotels in Orlando show
two visitors TO one this season over any past
year.
The fact is, that the vacancy in Jackson
sonville and st. Augustine is not caused by
the number Of people who have gone to Cali
fornIa, but by the fact that the great number
Of people who are coming to Florida are find
ing their way to Orlando and other points
South. There are over one hundred thou e
sand dollars worth OF brick buildings now
going up in Orlando. Street car tracks are
being laid over the entire city. Water WORKS.
and Electric Lights are IN process OF con-
struCtlon. In fact, Orlando is on the biggest
boom she has ever known.
Statistics show that more property has
changed hand IN and around Orlando than
In BirminghaTn. Alabama. WATKINS 4 CO.,
situate next door to First National Bank,
VINO are the leading Real Estate Agents in
South Florida are constant busy with their
handsome team showing visitors around, and
claim that they are doing more business than
all the other agencies in the city. They have
made point of taking no land on their book
held at an eXorbitant price. They invite an
inspection of their $50 per acre land, situated
three miles from Orlando. They have also
first-class pine and, seven miles from Orlan-
do, at Sl5 per acre. Good building lots IN Or
lando at $3.50. First-class pine land 80 TO So
per acre. They have two orange groves that
they guarantee VIII pay 20 per cent. net on
the Investment In connection with their
office IS first class reading room in which is
kept all the standard English and American
papers. The distinctive features OF this
Agency is that they sell only for commissions
and do not do SPECULATIVE business.
The phenomenal success Of WATKINS ~ co.
Is also due to the fact that they always i'm
pres. upon parties placing land in their hands
the advantage of making quick sale at small
prodts. II you should 20 to Florida do not
fan 10 visit Orlando. If you visit Orlando do
not fail 10 visit WATKINS n co.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND, in his re-
ply to the committee for unveiling
the statue erected to the memory OF
General Albert Sidney Johnston, at
New Orleans, wrote a manly and pat
riotic letter. In it he recognizes the
valor and military fame of General
Johnston, and takes the broad and
American view that every citizen can
share in the pride. inspired by the il
lustration of traits that have emo
bled the American character, whether
those great qualities we're shown
on one or the other side of the great
conflict. We have passed the period
when the acerbities Of the civil war
can blind us to the character of the
men who figured in it, whether North
or South. Great deeds of the great
men on both sides are now to be
measured by a wider and a broader
rule than heretofore. We are one
country and one people; and the his.
tory of both sides Of the great con-
flict is American history. 1t took
two hundred years to wear out the
animosities of the Cavaliers and the
Roundheads; but now Dryden and
Milton are equally dear to the mod
ern Englishman. What it took two
centuries to bring about in England
las been realized in the United States
in two and half decades.

THE Republican papers are growing
Justify over their victory in Chicago,
and some of them, in their great ella
ton, are inane enough to say that the
election of Republican Mayor in
Chicago-under peculiar and extraor-
dinary ircumstances-is enough to
insure that State to the "grand old
party" in the next Presidential con-
test. We shall not offend by remind
ing our extatic ncighbors of the we'll
worn saying about the ''Dutch taking
Holland;" but will point with pride
to the election in Rhode Island,
where Davis, the Democratic candi-
date for Governor, was elected by
nearly one thousand majority That
is something more than the Dutch
taking Holland. That is carrying the
war-and successfully, too-into Az
yica. It is not too much to say, "as
Rhode Island goes, 20 will the next
Presidential election CO."
Los Angeles daily herald., 1887-04-08

The three amendments to the Con-
stitution, submitted to the people Dy
the last Legislature, will be voted
upon next Tuesday. The first relates
to the Supreme Conrt and makes
some salutary changes in the powers
and machinery of that Court, besides
increasing its efficiency by authoriz-
ing the Supreme Court Commission
ers, which is now only an advisory
body, to hear and determine cases.
This is an amendment which ought
to be carried in the interest OF liti-
gants, who are now almost denied
Justice on account of the inadequacy
of the Court to the speedy determine
ton of cases. The second amend
ment increases the salaries of the Su-
preme Justices and those of a number
of the Superior Judges in counties
where the business is voluminous.
Tie fact that some of our ablest
Judges have resigned on account Of
the ;nadequacy OF the salaries, and be-
cause they can do much better in prl
vate practice, renders this amend
ment most exigent one. The thiro
amendment authorizes cities OF 10000
| inhabitants and over to frame theil
own charters. This is merely extend
ing the provisions of Section 8 OF AR
ticle XI. of the Constitution, which
now only applies to San Francisco, tt
smaller cities. 1t permits them t(
frame their own charters, which
when adopted, shall be submitted tt
the Legislat ture for its approval. Th'
Legislature must either pass the char
ters so submitted as a whole. or re-
ject them. No voter in Los Angeles
should fail to cast his ballot in favol
of this amendment, for with it We
shall be enabled to provide an or
ganic municipal law suited to our pc
culiar wants, and thus be relieved
from the straight-jacket in which oui
city now finds herself, with charter
that subserved the purposes OF lts
time, but which is altogether insult
ed to a city of the dimensions and
wants of the Los Angeles of to-day
Los Angeles daily herald., 1887-04-08

The rumor sent over the wires from
San Francisco to the papers yester-
day morning, to the effect that the
Postmaster. General, Mr.. Villas, is
about to replace Postmaster Green OF
this city by the appointment OF Sid
ney Lacey, bears good deal of the
look of verisimilitude about it. With
out wishing at all to reflect upon Mr..
Green in any way, we are constrained
to express the wish that it may be 80.
We have never had much sympathy
with that abortive production of the
Republican party, in the day when it
saw the handwriting on the wall OF
the National Capitol against it andits
policies-we mean the Civil Service
policy, concocted and inaugurated to
save what could be saved of the spoils
of office to the henchmen of the dying
party. The old Jacksonian doctrine,
which allows the President to
choose his subordinates, for
whom he is answerable, has more
justice and common sense in it, and
under Democratic rule gave the ma
ton in all departments a much bet
ter service than the other party has
ever given it. And if any change is
to be made, as should be made on
party lines, there is no man in Los
Angeles more deserving of the place,
nor more capable of filling it, than
Sidney Lacey. He is dyed-in-the-
wool Democrat, and hard worker
for the party's interests at all times.
He is besides a capable man, with
great knowledge OF affairs, and fine
executive talent. He will make a
good Postmaster, and will give uni
yersal satisfaction in the Office.

THE ladies of West Fairview, Penn
sylvania, paralyzed the Prohibition
lists of that place few days ago by
petitioning the Court of Quarter Ses'
sions to grant liquor license to the
keeper of the local hotel. They very
quantity said, in their petition, that
if license were granted, their hus.
bands would then be enabled to OBJ
tain a drink when they desired it,
and would bring it home in smaller
quantities than they do now ; nor
would they go away to Harrisburg
for their liquor, as they are now in
the habit of doing, and thus remain
away from their homes longer and
oftener than good husbands should
do. This is novel and striking ar
gument on the part Of the ladies in
favor Of license; but at the came time
it shows that West Fairview hus-
bands should not be held up as
models.
